Even if you don’t know Emma Sulkowicz’s name, you’re probably familiar with her thesis. Titled “Carry That Weight,” the idea behind the Columbia student’s project was simple yet powerful: She vowed to carry her university-issued mattress around campus until her alleged rapist left the school. Sulkowicz’s performance art piece quickly made headlines, and she became a highly visible face in the movement to address sexual assault on college campuses.

Sulkowicz found herself in the headlines again on Tuesday when The Daily Beast published an interview with Paul Nungesser, the student Sulkowicz accused of assaulting her. In addition to speaking with the writer, Nungesser provided the website with screenshots of Facebook conversations between himself and Sulkowicz after the alleged assault occurred.

As Mic fellow Julie Zeilinger wrote, the choice to include the screenshots “exemplifies the way in which journalists and media outlets perpetuate the perfect victim narrative through speculation on the complicated, personal dynamics of the rapist-survivor dynamic and innuendo. Doing so not only fails to capture the nuances of surviving assault but also works to shame and silence victims, perpetuating a cycle that allows campus sexual assault to persist at shocking rates.”
